Proportion keeps images lookingtrue to life

This image has 2 layers1 layer mask

and 2 fx on the top layer

Image Size• Image size is measured in pixel dimensions• Image size is measured in document size• Image size has a resolution that is measured in pixels per inch• As the designer it is your job to make sure that your images

are proportionally correct • An image that is proportionally incorrect will appear distorted• An image that is low resolution will contain artifacting• Artifacting is a degraded image that is distorted and out of

focus or even pixilated

This is an image obtained by doing a non specific Google image search

In Document size we see that the Resolution is 72 pixels / inch

72 pixels / inch is the standard resolution for screen

Most photos downloaded from Google for use will be 72 pixels / inch

The difference between a Large - High Resolution - image taken from the Google image search engine and a medium or small –low resolution – image are the dimensions in INCHES

This is a medium image that I am attempting to make High Resolution by making the ppi 300. It will not work.

It is clear that the quality of this image was not maintained as I prepared

it for my Print project. It is fuzzy, distorted and obviously shows that I

really have no idea what I am doing. I’m fired.

•This image was downloaded from the Google search engine using the search tool Size Large

• Size Large will usually filter the search to images that are literally bigger

As you can see, This image is:W = 27.681H = 27.681

This image is huge and square

The Resolution is still 72 pixels / inch

The common resolution for images intended for screen display

I have to edit this image so it will work for Print

• I have edited the image by changing the resolution to 300 pixels / inch. I have also decreased the literal size of this image. Because I have increased the Resolution and decreased the image size I have the result I want for print.

• This process and procedure is exactly the same every single time

• Take a large image and increase the Resolution, decrease the width and height proportionally. Photoshop does the math for you so make sure *constrain proportions* is checked

This image is so clear I can see individual skin cells

I’m hired

This here is a common mistake

What’s going on here?

Hired or Fired?

This image was a joke around the water cooler this morning. Why? Why is everyone in the office laughing at this noob mistake?

This is not your project is it?

The project file is the container document for edited images to be moved into.

The project file is labeled with yourname_project

^^ This is the project file that will be printed and submitted for grading

^^ This is an edited file that will be closedafter being *dragged and dropped* into the project file

All other files are to be edited and placed into the project file usingthe standard *drag and drop* technique

Notice that the image has been cropped.Notice that the proportions are perfect andthe Resolution is clear.

^^ Project File to be printed and saved in the Project Folder

^^ Close this

I hope this presentation clarifies things for you.
